In the late summer, for various reasons, we tend to let our practices slide. If you're leaving town, please take your mat with you. It's a great opportunity to work on your home practice, or have some adventures checking out new yoga studios and styles.

We are so luck to have the lovely Alix Blair joining our Loka Sangha! We've been waiting for so long to find the perfect person to teach on Tuesday mornings, and she has finally arrived.

Alix is so excited to get to meet you, that she has generously offered to let you come as her guest for her first four classes! Yes, you read that right, the next two Tuesdays and Thursdays the 9:30AM class is free! See you on the mat.

Alix Blair, a new arrival to the Bay Area, is a certified E-RYT 200 yoga teacher and has been teaching flow yoga for several years in North Carolina. Some years ago, Alix was injured so that she could not walk for several months. She felt disconnected from her body and had a lot of anger and frustration at it. Coming back to yoga let Alix create a relationship again with her body, cultivating more patience and gratitude. As a teacher, Alix wants her students to feel a sense of joy, strength, and connection with their bodies. Alix says that yoga makes her a happier, kinder, stronger version of herself and she wants to offer that to everyone. Alix enjoys creating music mixes to accompany her classes. During her childhood, Alix wanted to be a mermaid and a ninja warrior.

Regretfully, the Yoga Immersions with Melina Meza at Loka will not be happening this spring and summer due to insufficient registration. If you were signed up, you can have a full refund or use your registration fee towards future yoga classes at Loka.

If you're looking to spend more quality time with Melina, she is currently offering a 3 day Solstice retreat in CA, a week long retreat at Feathered Pipe Ranch, Montana, and a winter adventure to Northern India, all with the lovely and knowledgable Dr. Baxter Bell. Click here for info.

Although we are saddened Melina's departure, it is bittersweet because we have Hayley Ebersole taking over that Tuesday 7:30PM spot, and new to Loka teacher Poh Teng will be taking over Wednesday nights at 6PM!

Known is known for her curiosity, playfulness and nurturing style, Poh leads classes through movement with breath, awareness, healthy alignment and safe, creative sequencing. She offers a practice that helps create spacious presence for the busy, modern life. Poh is trained in the Vinyasa and therapeutic styles, and continues to be inspired and informed by the Anusara, Forrest, Power, Shadow and Iyengar Yoga lineages. With over 700 hours of training and a PhD in Biochemistry & Molecular Biology, she blends yogic tradition, mindfulness practices, and current findings in biology and yoga therapy. Poh is especially interested in offering yoga therapy for back pain and cancer wellness. Occasionally, there's a splash of Bhakti and she sings.

Eve's Sunday 4:30PM class is "gone fishing" for the summer, the last Sunday 4:30PM class will be May 31st and them we'll see you back at that time in the fall.
